| Description | A majority of the public disapproves of the Republican idea to cut off funding for health care reform, a new CBS News poll shows - although most also disapprove of the health care law, and many aren't sure of its impact on the health care system.
Republicans in Congress have said they intend to do everything in their power to stop President Obama's health care reforms from going into place - including de-funding provisions of the legislation. Funding for the new health care reforms is one component of the debate Republicans intend to have with the president this year over federal spending, deficit reduction and government regulations.
Most Americans, 55 percent, disapprove of the plan to cut off funding to the new health care reforms, and just 35 percent approve. Among Republicans, approval rises to 57 percent. Forty-nine percent of independents disapprove, and 38 percent approve. |
